Okay....I know I'm going to catch flack for this one, but here goes...

Every organisation in American Universities, unless they were founded to be distintly not so, are HISTORICALLY Christian. Because, untill recently when people are reclaiming their faith, it just ended up that way. Did founders mean to bring Jesus and the Cross into things? Some did I guess, but not all. Alot of the Christian things were nominal only. Its what you had to do to look good. That sounds bad, but its how things were. Then Jewish people wanted no part of that. Some started intentionally Jewish orgs or intentionaly non sectarian orgs. Most of the Historicaly/nonimaly christian orgs have sence just embrased god, not jesus, and changed a little bit of languge (not substance of ritual) in order not to offend anyone. Because religious creed should be a limiting factor in membership of anyglo, I don't think religion should be a starting point either. It only leads to closemindedness.
